As the clue would not have been affected by the use of that word, it seemed like an unnecessary awkwardness.

For 8d I had a???h and for 10a r?m??.

Eventually I thought I might as well try apish though I thought apeish would be like a primate.

That left r?m?i? which I was convinced didn’t have anything that fitted.

Gave up and used a solver on the PE crossword for the first time in over three years.
